Top 3 players to check out for in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025

The ICC Champions Trophy makes a comeback after a long haul of eight years, with the defending champions, Pakistan, being the tournament's hosts. In addition, the UAE will act as the second host country, specifically for India matches.

Fanatics are already talking about which players may light up the event. Several cricketers are primed to become the edition's defining characters, from rising talents to seasoned veterans. That being said, here are the top three players to watch out for in the forthcoming Champions Trophy edition that may impact their respective arsenals. 

1. Harry Brook

Harry Brook will be a no-brainer of choice for this list as a promising player to check out for in the upcoming ICC tournament. His impeccable familiarity with the daunting Pakistan pitches and its conditions is credited. Harry Brook's love affair with Pakistan seems to be never-ending. The English batter frequently struggles with form and consistency worldwide but eventually finds his best in the subcontinent area, particularly Pakistan.

The 25-year-old recently achieved a triple century in a Test match against Pakistan and is coming off a tremendous one-day international series against Australia. Overall, his present performance will involve talking through his English willow. He has played just 20 matches in his ODI timeline, scoring 719 runs at a noteworthy average of over 40 and making five half-centuries and one triple-digit mark.
